Hello
I would like to know what is the easiest and fastest way to create this 3D sketch in SolidWorks: how do you go about it? Maybe the best thing to do is to make a video.
To make the lower part, it's simple. It gets a little tricky during the upper part and the uprights that connect the two. See then my next question.
Edit: it's a 3D sketch used then for a welded mechanic, not a volume!
The fastest way is to create a volume
and rework of the angles to create the 3D sketch

@gt22: thank you for your answer, but it's a 3D sketch used later for a welded mechanic, not a volume!
Kind of like gt22, sketch the bottom surface, then extrude 700 with a 10° draft and voila!
Oh dear, next door! (we'll blame it on Monday morning)
I would make a 700mm offset plane from the top plane,
Then in the 3D sketch make the bottom on the top plane and the side to constrain it, then the top on the created plane without constraining it.
Connect the vertices with segements and constrain the angle.
The conversion of the outer lines allows you to create your 3D sketch
It's true @gt22! I hadn't thought about it and it can be easier!
Let's see what other solutions we propose.
A bit like @Frederic for me. I would split all this into 3 sketches.
The first in 2D (the bottom one) on a foreground
The second in 2D (the top one) on a staggered plane
And the third in 3D to connect the dots between the top and the bottom one.
What bothers me the most is that you have a 100° dimension instead of having the width dimension of the top corresponding to the 1000 of the bottom. But it must be able to be obtained automatically with an equation to avoid redoing everything if the height dimension changes
Or, another variant
Sketch 1 in 2D for the bottom.
Create a 700mm offset plane and a 100° oriented plane that starts from your bottom sketch (at points XYZ)
Draw two lines starting from the bottom sketch, oriented and intersecting the offset plane.
3rd 2D sketch on the offset plan for the upper part.
4th 3D sketch for the remaining lines to join the two sketches
Not sure if it's very clear?
See attached file

700 mm extrusion with 10° green light draft
Create the 3D sketch by converting the features

For my part, I lose a lot of time but I prefer to do it only in 3D sketching on the fly
[Edit] and to easily change planes in a 3D sketch ->T ouche Tab
[Edit] Be careful with my method with the projections of the dimensions in the plans. Favor the Stefbeno method
I admit that GT's method is really not bad
it's the most suitable for the log in my opinion
and which of + is you just have to take the sketch or the volume
to change what you want and the rest am always
It's elementary
@+
Don't hesitate to use construction lines and geometric constraints.
The idea of creating a volume may be practical, but I pity the person who has to modify the folder afterwards.
I admit that stefbeno 's solution corresponds a little more to the need.
I'm going to test both tonight, and I'll tell you which one is the most practical!
For mine it looks like this:
I use construction lines less
But, if I understand your method correctly, the odds are wrong (compared to the plan provided)
Oh yes definitely... I hadn't paid attention to the inclination of my 700 hill!
[Edit] Be careful with my method with the projections of the dimensions in the plans. Favor the Stefbeno method
@PL, So how did you proceed?
I didn't have time to do it yesterday after all.
But I saw that there were a lot of indications on the internet! It will teach me not to search on the internet before asking a question about Lynkoa!
And both solutions were proposed:
By volume:
